The Council Room

Dave,
Thank you for adding your photos to the gallery. Some great shots.

The RLA note brought back some long lost memories. I have to admit that I was a member of the RLA.

Hey, thanks, Tom.

Here's a link to the gallery Tom's talking about:
http://www.wyanoke.com/gallery/Dave-Ayars-1965-1975
The RLA/Rutabaga Liberation Army item Tom's referring to is at the end of that gallery. You guys were a hoot. But you just outed yourself. Expect the full force of Wolfeboro and Carroll County law enforcement to stage a mass SWAT team raid on your home any time now.

Mike reminded me that a great set of camp photos I hadn't seen for a while can be found in the old galleries in three sets submitted by Jerrey Hoyt.
http://www.wyanoke.com/pictures.htm
Jerrey got a shot of a camper in his tent group, I believe Greg Anderson (who bears an uncanny resemblance to Draco Malfoy at that age from the early Harry Potter films), a shot that happens to have the Lower Junior Pines in the background, the only known surviving image of it we've seen. We're still looking for a shot of the Upper Junior Pines. Free candy line to the first person submitting one.

Nobody wants to see a shot of the Senior Pines. That's a place that needed to be swabbed down with a bucket of PineSol 10 minutes after it was last cleaned.

Dave,
I figured the Statute of Limitations was in my favor and I was safe in outing myself.

If I recall the use of the word "Rutabaga" started with Randy and John Lowell. There was a camper from south america who did not know that word and they took advantage of that to to confuse him by using the word in context that did not make sense. After a few days he was even answering to the name "Rutabega".
